Loan and balance transfer needed

Hi. First post here so please go easy!
I have received a new job which for the long term which be much better for me financially. In the short term I have a credit card (0% interest till end of 2019) that I am hoping to get a balance transfer for. In addition I was looking to get a loan to buy a car (currently have company car and don’t want lease/PCP). Should I delay the balance transfer and push for the loan now?

It very much depends on your circumstances - particularly income, amounts sought and your credit history.0

I was in a similar situation and did the balance trasnfer option and then applied for the loan. I was turned down for the loan and i can only assume it was because i'd tried to borrow too much credit too soon.0
